HERB PULL APART ROLLS
1. In a mixer bowl, add 1 packet active dry yeast. Dissolve in 1 cup of warm water and a pinch of sugar.
2. Wait until bubbles start to form around edges, about 6-9 minutes.
3. Now add ¼ cup of melted butter, 2 cups of flour, 2 T. of sugar, 1 ½ tsp of salt, ¼ tsp thyme, ¼ tsp oregano, ¼ tsp dill.
4. Turn to speed 2 and mix for one minute or until everything is well blender.
5. Continue at speed 2 and add 1 ½ cups of flour in ½ cup increments and mix for about 2 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
6. Place the dough in a bowl and cover it. Set the bowl aside in a warm place and let it rise for about an hour, or until it doubles in size.
7. Now punch the dough down. Make sure you flour your work surface and rolling pin, and roll the dough into a small disk.
8. Divide the disks into six even wedges. Divide each wedge into six even

Thank you very much for this recipe. I served under chicken diablo which I'll share soon. The dish is quite hot so it didn't allow the fine flavors in the waffles to shine through. This really makes a nice change out for starches in the meal. You are correct about how these smell wonderful while cooking!

I also added an extra 30g of butter. I made it the first time with bread flour and the dough was very dry and stiff. It was still stiff this time with all purpose so I'm wondering if the video left an ingredient out? Other than that, they do make nice pull apart buns.

@Pat - i agree, a written recipe would be nice. To answer your question, there is no ingredient after flour. She said "add the flour, *in half cup increments*". Hope that helps.

This sounds a lovely easy recipe but please please cant you give us the written recipe as this would be so much easier. I was unable to grasp what the last ingredient was that she put in after the second lot of flour? maybe its because I am english and not up to the way maybe you pronunce what she said ha!. other than that I love all the recipes you have .
Cheers.

Although I have the capability to view the videos of these recipes, I would really just like to be able to read thru recipes rather than watch someone fix them. Please make it optional to view the recipes in a video, and show the print recipe before.
